HI mother. Sounds
like life is the best... just like every week.
Quelle bénédiction! Thanks for
the missionary tip. I will be sure to
put it to practice. Sounds like you and
dad have been teaching a lot with the sister missionaries. That’s sweeeet. Members missionaries are the coolest. Keep it up.
I have yet to find a suit. That
is my goal today. I will have to let you
know next week if I have succeeded. I
will be sure to take a cute little pic for you in my French suit... don’t you
worry. And the shoes. Long story short. One of the Elders in the
mission has zero money and zero support from home and he really needed some
shoes haha. So I may or may not have
given him my new pair of shoes that y’all sent me with Kenna. Sorry bout that! But like always when we help others the Lord
helps us!!!! The very next day after I
gave him the shoes I found an old pair of shoes underneath my bed that work
very nicely! #Blesssssed. I may buy a
cheap pair if I can find them during "soldes" these next couple of
weeks. That’s legit that Phil Mickelson
won the major. Guy is a stud. Not his biggest fan but that’s neat. #Chapeau.
Speaking of golf... have y’all been able to play or has it been way to
hot? Im guessing Fallon’s grass is all
yellow if its been that hot eh?
Hopefully it will cool down so y’all can get out there and whack some
ballz.
This last week was a week of miracles. The Lords hand in our work was very
visible. So the week started off on
another trek to Paris
(soooo many long train rides). We had
our exchanges with the assistants. Super
legit. I also got to go to the mission
home for a little bit. Got to see Prez. He is sooo legit! Love that man. We were able to talk for a little bit about
the missionaries in our zone and I
picked up all of our mail for the zone.
Like always... nothing for me haha.
Lifes rough eh? But lets be
real. I am pretty bad at writing back so
don’t bother sending them things. The
exchange with the assistants was super short but very productive. An american girl who lives in
France doing some kind of service thing and a french girl who just
graduated from BYU. were at the train station. We ended up catching the same train as them during
an exchange. Super funny convo. Yes they are members. Small world! But best of all when were in the train station buying tickets
to come back to Strasbourg when I met a man who
lived in America
for a little bit but he is French. Turns
out he met a Mormon family in America
who he really liked. He was very
interested in our message and we were able to set up a RDV with him with the
assistants. Coooool. And then after we got back from our exchanges
with the assistants we went on exchanges with the Elders in Mulhouse (only an hour train ride!). They have been struggling finding new amis so
we really focused on that. Turned out to
be the best exchange of my mission.
Everyone we talked to was interested in the gospel! We were able to find some new amis for them
to teach. No better feeling then being
able to help other missionaries! Serving
the lord is the best. And also in our own area we were able to find 8 new
amis! Highest number of the mish so
far. Stats are not important but it does
help me to see how much the Lord is blessing us and how he is hastening his
work. This week in the France Paris
Mission we found 210 new amis! The
highest number in the history of the mission by a mile. Just 2 years ago the
average in the mission was 50 new amis.
The Lord is hastening his work for sure!
The people of France
are being prepared to get whacked with the spirit! So glad to be apart of it. It’s amazing what happens to a mission when
it has a legit President and a bunch of obedient missionaries! The sky is the limit.
Thanks for being awesome. Thanks for all of your prayers... I feel them
each and every day... especially for my French! I have been able to see so much progress as of
lately. The Lord answers prayers! Don’t you forget it! Remember... "When LIFE gets to hard to
stand... KNEEL! Thanks for EVERYTHING.
Life rocks. Have a good week y’all. Je vous aime!
Bisous
Elder Adamz
